I have come across this a few times before. If Tyrone's suggestion does not work then you have a bigger problem. The problem would be that there used to be an AL with that name, someone tried to delete it but it did not delete properly (maybe someone tried to create it and it did not create properly ) and the name resides in a table in the DB, see Gary's search. This will give the same problem where it is not in the AL list but you cannot use that name. It would need to be deleted out of there but if you mess it up you can create serious work for yourself. Make a 100% sure before you go this route. If you are not sure, get help. You need a surgeon with a very steady hand. :)

I have to agree with Matt Gayford, next time, try refreshing your active link list to make sure that it had not already saved, and then you might have done, as Andy suggested, a save as. To make querying the database quicker, I always create an admin-only, display-only form with two character fields, both unlimited in length. The first field is where I place my query, and then I have a button that will do a set fields to the second character field with the results of the query. I use it quite a lot instead of opening up SQL Enterprise Manager.
